Manual Customer Invoice SOP
Manual Customer Invoice SOP
2- Start by entering Customer number, Invoice identity and currency. Series ID for Invoice identity
will always remain CI since it is a manual entry which will distinguish from other invoice series IDs
such as CRA, DR, CR and CD. Make sure to enter only Invoice number associated with the Order
number. DO NOT enter Order number in Invoice identity. Invoice number is used instead of
Order number so that it shows up a better picture in the AR report.
3- In ‘General’ tab, enter the invoice date and payment terms. Enter the language as English and
proceed to ‘Lines’ tab. Most the boxes will automatically fill out once Customer number has been
entered.
4- In the ‘Lines’ tab, click the plus sign on left and enter the Gross Amount. If it is credit then enter
the amount in negative and positive if it is debit. Proceed to ‘Posting’ tab
5- In ‘Posting’ tab click the plus sign on left and start by entering the Account number and Cost
Center where the entry needs to be coded based on individual scenarios. Please check with AR
rep or Supervisor to obtain the coding.
6- After entering Account and Cost Cent, enter the same amount in Debit Amount column if it’s
credit or in Credit Amount column if it’s debit in order to balance the entry. Once entered, make
sure that Balance and Balance in Acc Curr boxes balances to $0 balance. This means that the
double entry is balanced.
7- Enter the details in the Text column for the tracking purpose in General Ledger and save the
entry.
8- After saving it, make sure to enter Notes from the notes check box so that it shows up on AR
report. Note can be of the same detail as Text column or any additional details.
9- Once the entry is saved, it will disappear from ‘Posting’ tab and the double entry will show up in
the ‘Voucher’ tab and you can verify which account the entry was made. (see step 12 for this
screen shot)
10- Correction: If you believe that an entry was incorrectly entered then search the invoice number
and right click on the same Manual Customer Invoice screen. Hit Cancel Invoice to delete that
manual invoice and start the same process if it needs to be re-entered. (see step 12 for this
screen shot)
11- Manual invoice can only be cancelled for deletion or correction if AR rep has not applied that
invoice in the system. It CANNOT be cancelled if it’s already applied in the system.
